RPi != Amlogic, you can't use RPi driver for Amlogic device.

Ok!

Thanks for your fast response.

It used to happen but I fixed it long time ago. I also have to admit that for some time now I've been using a S905 device, S805 only sporadically for testing - and it works just fine.

Android uses a different CEC driver that is not compatible with libcec.

kszaq, the driver in in the old Rasbmc and the new OSMC from Sam Nazarko works without this problems, (of course in the Raspberry Pi), it is possible to use that drivers in LibreElec?

Im not suggest what you make this in your distribution, but maybe you could guide me in the right direction to do it myself.

I know very little about linux, but I am a programmer in Windows enviroment so maybe with a litlle help I could make it work.

Thanks!

cartucho Sadly I cannot help more, the driver is tweaked as far as possible. Have you tried using a different HDMI cable?

Yes,

besides it is not the cable, because this dont appears in Android (in nand SuperCeleron 1.4b).

For Netflix I use Android for hours and CEC never disconnect...

strange..

Never happened to you? (i think I read what you have a Samsung TV also)

Thanks anyways for your work, your build is by far THE BEST for this device!

update to 8.1.4... sadly CEC keeps disconnecting randomly

cartucho You can now build S805 from libreelec-8.2 branch.

I am new to LibreElec...

I can update via Settings--Addon?

Ok. Thanks!

I wait for it.

kszaq any news about the CEC fails?

My previous logs shows you anything?

Thanks!

I do not think that's the problem, because that patch refers to conmute the source in the TV dont been recognized.

In my case I change to CEC without problem, used for a while until CEC stop working.

I attach TWO logs where I recreate the problem. Boot, use the interface of Kodi, left and right between the differents menus until CEC stop working. In the two logs the last line before I lose CEC is:

T:3021882160   DEBUG: SECTION:UnloadDelayed(DLL: libnfs.so.8)

I dont know much of this. kszaq maybe could analize this better.

Also I think libcec-3953f8d fixes this issue (forgot which commit exactly). Because on RPi there were similar issue.

I don´t know but I dont think so, because 8.1.1, is from July 2017 and that patch is from March, but only kszaq knows if that patch is included.

I suspect what its not the case because I have a Raspberry Pi 1 long time ago, and NEVER CEC was a problem.

Hi, I´m using LibreELEC-S805.arm-8.2-8.1.1-MXQ.img in my MK808B+ and Kodi works great...

I have a problem with CEC in my Samsung TV.

I want to know if this happens only to my or is a common bug (because you always note in your releases: sometimes CEC may not work)

In my case CEC works but very often fails. I mean, I boot my MK808B+ and in my Samsung TV appears Anynet+ Kodi, so I change to that and works well, but suddenly (for no reason) my remote stop working and my TV says: There is not a Anynet source.

Happens at different moments, sometimes with I navigate the Kodi interface, but also when I am viewing a movie.

The only fix I found (besides reboot) is logging in SSH and type this command:

kodi-send --action="CECActivateSource"

after that CEC start working again.

I read here the user sammaz have a similar problem.

I could provide logs if you want.
